I would respectfully call your attention : j
"The Dalles seems to have consider
able trouble in finding out why they did
not have a sham, battle. On the face of
things it is apparent that the stain pain
toon its place, ana tne ootue is miganer
than the battle. The majority of C eoin-
pauy got drunk and the quelling of the
disturbance by I and D companies,
caused so much hard feeling that it was
conduced best not to have the sham,
battle." . . -, .
Members of C eoniiany are naturally
indignant at what they cdhsider a base
slander on their good name. They are
not a set of drunkards as the Olacier
would have the public understand by the
above publication. The members of the
company rank as high as any set of
young men in The Dalles and they
object to the statement that they were
drunk on the encampment grounds or
anywhere else. My men are sober,
industrous, and law observing arid
I wish" td make an explicit denial of the
charge of drunkenness on the occasion
referred to. Persons who live here in
Ttie .Dalles arid persoually know the
members of C Company will bear me
out in this assertion.

Portland, Or., July 14. The meet
ing of the chamber of commerce
last evening had several important
matters brought -Slwfore it. There
1 was quite a large nnmbei in at
tendance ana uusiness was aisposea oi
at a rapid rate. The committee on
transportation reported that it has had a
conference., with-The Dalles, Portland & :
Astoria Transitortation company, who !
find that it is absolutely necessary for
the success of their enterprise that the
business men of the city subscribe $10,
000 of tbo stock of the company. The
committee indorses this enterprise and
President Osborn recommends it to tne
favorable consideration of the mercan
tile community. On motion the report
was adopted, and was directed that two
members be apMinted to assist the rep
resentatives ot the company in-securing
subscriptions.
AN INDORSEMENT.
The following resolution, introduced
bv John Gill, was adopted :
'Wheueas, The opening of the Col- j
umbia river is an object to which this
chamber has pledged its allegiance; and !
Whereas, The Columbia Railway & I
Navigation companv is now in a posi- I
tion to outer into negotiations looking
toward the completion of its already es-:
tablished railroad around the obstruc
tions at the Dalles and Celilo, and also
the building and equipping -and opera
tion of a complete line of steamboats be
tween the city of Portland and the In
land Empire, tributary to the Columbia
river; and
Whereas, The Columbia - Railway &
Transportation Company has signified
jts desire to submit to this Chamber of
Commerce, and through it to the people
of this city and the surrounding country,
a definite proposition for the establish
ment of a complete system of transpor
tation upon the Columbia river; now,
therefor, be it
Resolved, That a committee consist
ing of Thomas F. Osborn, W. S. Mason,
Ellis G. Hughes, Charles H. Dodd, and
D. D. Oliphant be hereby appointed to
confer as early as practicable with the
officers of the said Columbia Railway &
Navigation Company, and that said com
mittee, report the results of their-confer-ence
to the next regular meeting of this
body, or at a special meeting to be called
for that purpose if it is thought neces
sary. Waaco'a New Paper. '
County Clerk V. C. Brock of Wasco,
Sherman county; paid the Chronicle a
visit this morning, and supplied us with
information in regard to the new paper
which will be started soon at Moro. It
will be called the Wasco News and will
be edited by -Mr. J. M. Cummins of
Goldendale. A new plant has been
purchased for the office and everything
will be complete. Mr. Cummins is a
writer of ability, and we have no doubt
will publish a bright and.' newsy paper.
The Chronicle wishes the News a long
and prosperous career. .

A novel wivy of measuring bolted dry
goods, which, if followed, will save lots
of time for clerks, especially during in
voicing season, is the following: Take
half the circumference of the bolt and
add to it the width of the board on which
the goods are wrapped. Multiply this
figure by the number of folds in the
cloth, and divide that figure by thirty
six. The result will be the number of
yards in the piece. One of our mer
chants put the plan to a practical test
recently, and found it to-be unfailing in
its correctness.
The announcement is made that J. M.
Strange will begin the publication of a
newspaper at Oakesdale, Wash., about
the 22nd inst., to be called the Plain
dealer. We wish the new institution
success. -. ' -

genial and accommodating-agent for the
Union Pacific at the Dalles, -deserves
the thanks loth of the 4th of July Com
mittee and of the citizens of The Dalles
! for his efforts in making the parade and i
celebration a complete success. The di-
vision of the parade representing the
Union Pacific system was ingenious and I
unique ; it reflected great credit on Mr.
Lytle, at whose sole expense it was got
ten ur This set-lion represented the !
different adauces made in the mode of
crossing the continent.
First in line, drawn by two yoke of
oxen, :icame the typical -- "prairie
schooner' representing the immigrants
of the days of '49, bound for Oregon, and
and at last reaching their destination
after a journey of more than six months.
Next followed six horses pulling the
stage coach of early days. , Last, to show
the perfection to . which the U. P. has
brought travelling, came a magnifici
ently decorated drawing-room, car, filled,
with handsome young ladies and gentle
men, who smiled on the applauding
crowd. ;
While the procession passed through
the streets, Mr. John Hampshire, the
bright and obliging ticket agent for the
Union Pacific, distributed among the
throng folders descriptive of the U. P.
The exhibition furnished by Mr. Lytle
won for him many friends among The
Dalles people, and at the same time it
was an excellent advertisement for the
Union Pacific. The -managers ot that
road can congratulate themselves on
having in Mr. Lytle an efficient officer
who will ever look after its interests.

The thirteenth annual session of the
grand lodge of the Ancient Order of
United Workmen of Oregon, Washing
ton, and British Columbia will com
mence tomorrow -at Victoria, B. C. A
very large attendance is expected. The
fare for -the round trip from Portland
and return including railroad and
steamer will be only $11.70, and it is
probable that a number of the residents
1 of The Dalles will avail themselves of the
cheap excursion rates. Mr. John Filloon
is delegate from Temple lodge No. 3, of
this city and U. B. Perry, from Hood
River, No. 53, both of whom will proba
bly attend.
One of the iu,st important matters
will be the proposition to establish a
separate grand lodge for Washington and
British. Columbia, the supreme lodge
having al its session in Detroit last
month left it optional with this grand
lodge. British Columbia lodges were
allowed to attach 'to the Washington
grand lodge, or Ontario, just as they
preferred. They will probably go with
Washington, as they are nearer and bet
ter connected by lines of transportation.

Business men may save themselves a
good deal of mortification if they will be 1
ou their guard against any cheap direct
ory scheme that demands pay in - ad
vance. That fake has been worked in
the east and is always-a disappointment.
Either the book never comes or it so in

L. Polk & Co., of Portland, Oregon have
been publishing biennially, since 1884,
their well known Oregon, Washington
and Idaho gazetteer and business di
rectory. It is a standard publication of
rare merit and should be heartily sup
ported. It is issued at $5.00, a price that
insures a thoroughly accurate book, and
the publishers exhibit their confidence
in their own work by not asking "pay
in advance.". People are further warned
not to believe in the falsehoods of can
vassers for bogus publication, who say
Polk & Co., have retired from, the field.
They "now have their - next Oregon,
Washington and Idaho book in active
preparation, and will be here long after
these piratical schemes are dead and are
forgotten. ...
Some years ago an orcbardist in Maine
put up a number of barrels of choice
I apples very carefully, placed in each his
name and address, with a request that
the purchaser, whoever he might . be,
would inform him' that the fruit arrived
in good condition, and forwarded the lot
to a Liverpool 'merchant. In the 'due
course of time he received replies ex
pressing satisfaction and wanting more
of the same sort. This was the begin
ning of a lucrative business, which the
orchardist was wise enough to foster by
sending out only first-class fruit. Col
onel Pell, of Pelbam, N. Y., built up a
fine trade in England with his famous
Newton pippins, which he had carefully
picked, assorted and wrapped in tissue
paper before packing. High prices and
a steady demand rewarded this painstak
ing care; Joles Bros., of this city will
ship a great deal , of fruit this fall and
will pack the most of it in paper,
